# SMTP, IMAP and POP Settings for Popular Email Providers

A quick reference of the SMTP, IMAP, and POP server addresses, ports, and security settings for popular email providers, handy for email integrations.

When setting up email integration for clients, I often have to Google popular email providers’ IMAP, POP, and SMTP details. I could memorise them, but I would much rather write them down in a single post where they can be easily referenced.

I have added details for all the popular email services I know of. If you know of other email providers I have forgotten or think would be helpful to have on the list, please [contact me](https://ivankahl.com/), and I’ll add them.
